This I wrote this for a colleague who was retiring but it is for all T.A's and teachers
WHERE
IS THE CHILD?
Where
is the child
With
eyes filled with pain
Whose
face never smiled
A
voice never heard
But
couldn’t explain
You
gave them your hand
Where
is the child
With
hate in their eyes
Who
always hit out
Who
wanted it all
But
couldn’t explain
You
gave them your time
Where
is the child
With
despair in their eyes
Who
failed to succeed
Who
wouldn’t join in
But
couldn’t explain
You
gave them your strength
Where
is the child
Who
took your hand
The
child now lives
Where
is the child
Who
had your time
The
child now gives
Where
is the child
Who
needed your strength
That
child has now grown
These
are your children
Whose
lives now move on
Who
give you their hope
Who
give you their thanks
Who
give you their love
Who
now can explain.
